L. Stevenson. The above put* into words what anyone of us may feel at time*. There have been many beatutiful sunsets lately and like all the truly good thing* of life tttey are free. Imagine, if you can, never seeing the splendor of a sunset without paying a fee. Cer tainly we would hoard our pennies for such a treat. There are many other wonderful gifts at nature just as free as sunsets if we only open our eye* to them. Lord Halifax, who answered Hit ler’* bld for peace early thia week, ia called the “saintliest” character In British public life, according to John Gunther in hi* “Inside Europe.” Hal ifax made a stirring address and surely the English warrior* will be armed, not only with obedience and patriotism, th* usual martial attri bute*, but with a consecration to th* justice of their cause and with the sacrednes* of their duty.

BEAUTIFUL • MODERN MONTAG One must admit that Hitler learns by past mistakes. His broadcast last Friday morning was in a temperate tone, utterly different from the pre vious hysterical screeching and rant ing which had characterized hl* ad dresses to the German people. Of course, hi* talk war designed for the United States as much as for the reichstag. We wondered, in listening to hi* broadcast, if it were one speech or two. Hitler’s voice, and hi* tone of delivery could be heard but hi« English translator drowned out his words and it bad to be taken on faith that the English version was the same as the original one in German. We doubt that a native Germsui could have distinguished the words of Hit ler and been sure of a correct trans lation into English. Hitler’s has shown himself capable of any ery, great or small, when its serves his purpose.
